Sophia Gunkel Art

Faire: Delft

Maker: Sophia Gunkel

Home: Zuid-Holland, Netherlands

Welcome to the mesmerising world of Sophia Gunkel; an abstract artist who explores the intersection between her dreams and reality. Sophia is interested in exploring the blurry boundary between the conscious and subconscious being; to give shape to the intangible through her art. Experimenting with different mediums her abstract works are snapshots of her dream world, and are created with fluidity and intuition. Each new piece comes to life through layers of paint, and with each layer light, structure, and depth of colour are considered. Much like a dream, the painting takes its own shape and is only done once the artist feels that the reminiscence of the dream is captured. If you are spending time with her work, Sophia invites you to dream with her. She aims for the experience to be transportive: let your mind wander and associate. There might be things that you recognise and other parts that remain elusive or open-ended; memories or sensations that cannot be expressed with words.

Io creo il mio device

Faire: Rome

Maker: Energy Family Project APS (e-Nable Italia)

 

e-Nable Italia is a community of volunteers focused on the development, construction and free distribution of devices (the "devices", aids based on "Open Source" projects) to anyone who has limb difference problems or needs aids, the initiative is promoted and managed by the Energy Family Project APS, the Italian association of families with children with agenesis and limb amputation problems. "I create my device" is an experimental project based on the concept of "disablity led design", a new approach to the design of aids that can actively involve children/users in the creative design process of their help. This approach goes beyond the simple participation of the user, that becomes the starting point and essential contributor to the project. In contrast to the other approaches, disability-led design “seeks to speculatively respond to, amplify, or celebrate some aspect of the identity and culture of people with disabilities. The outcomes of disability-led design are characterized by a change in the way we perceive and interact with a category of object, space or system, and by a consequent change in the meaning assigned to it” (National Endowment for the Arts, 2021, p .23). Through some creative sessions activated with the children of the families of the association the children were encouraged to generate ideas for new devices that the community of volunteers would subsequently implement. The devices imagined by children are the result of their creativity and will respond to needs that are important to them. At the Maker Faire stand we would like to exhibit both some of these devices designed directly by children, but also the entire design process as the application of an approach which involves a transfer of design power from the designer to the end user, with a consequent change in conception and perception of the prosthetic object as part of the "self" system, as well as in the meaning that this assumes as a manifestation of self-determination of the disabled user.
